Pita Wabili 2
1 Basinsimi babeji bakeza kubantu, abalo bayiisyi babeji bayoboola alimwi kulindinywe. Bayoza chakusisilikizya anjiisyo zinyonyoona, alubo bayomukaka naba Mwami wakabawula amulo. Bayolyetela lunyonyoko chakufwambana.
False prophets came to the people, and false teachers will also come to you. They will secretly bring with them destructive heresies, and they will deny the master who bought them. They are bringing quick destruction upon themselves.
2 Lino bantu biingi bayotobela zyiimbo zyabo, alubo mukwinda mulimbabo inzila yesimpe iyosampawulwa.
Many will follow their sensuality, and through them the way of truth will be blasphemed.
3 Mukutangala kwabo bayomunyanzya nyanzya amajwi alweeno. Ilutuko lwabo talukoyononoka kusiika; alwalo lunyonyooko lwabo talukonzyi koona.
In their greed they will exploit you with deceptive words. For a long time their condemnation has not been idle, and their destruction is not asleep.
4 Nkambo Leza takabaleka nibaba baangelo ibakabisya. Pele wakabaaba kuli Tatalasi kuti babambwe mumacheni alamudima waansi mane dokukabe lubeta. Zimwi njiisyo mpati zyabansiku ba Giliki zibalika oobu, bayolondolwa mumilindi ilamudima unikide mane kukabe lubeta. (Tartaroō g5020)
For God did not spare the angels who sinned. Instead he handed them down to Tartarus to be kept in chains of lower darkness until the judgment. (Tartaroō g5020)
5 Alubo, takwakileka nyika yabasikale. Pesi, wakavuna Nowa, oyo wakali nkambawuko yabululami, kubikaamwi abali musanu ababili awo mpakazoyeta zambangulwe anyika yabantu batakwe bunaleza.
Also, he did not spare the ancient world. Instead, he preserved Noah, who was a herald of righteousness, along with seven others, when he brought a flood on the world of the ungodly.
6 Alubo Leza wakazomwayula ziisi zya Sodomu a Gomola kuba mulota akubapa lutuko lwakunyonyoka kuti chibe chitondezyo chazichizochitikila aabo batakwe bunaleza.
God also reduced the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah to ashes and condemned them to destruction, as an example of what is to happen to the ungodly.
7 Alubo wakavuna oyo wakaluleme Loti, oyo wakali kukatazigwa akwenda kwabataluleme batabambi mulawu -
But as for the righteous Lot, he was oppressed by the sensual behavior of lawless people.
8 Oyo mwalumi wakaluleme, wakali kukkala akatikabo kwamazuba, wakali kujatikana loko mumoyo wakwe ululeme nkambo kamilimo yabo yakali mibi njakabona akumvwa.
So that righteous man, who was living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul because of what he saw and heard.
9 Mwami ulizi mbanga ulavuna aabo bayowa Leza kuzwa mumasunko alubo akubabamba abo bataluleme kababambilwa kusubulwa mubuzuba ob o bwalubeta.
The Lord knows how to rescue godly men out of trials, and how to hold unrighteous men for punishment at the day of judgment.
10 Aka nkasimpe kapati kuli baabo bazumina munzila zisofwede zyanyama abaabo batalemyi bwami. Mbasikulipa akulisumpula balipa bupati, tabayowi awo niba sampawula balemu.
This is especially true for those who continue in the corrupt desires of the flesh and who despise authority. Bold and self-willed, they are not afraid to blaspheme the glorious ones.
11 Baangelo balanguzu mpati abupati, pesi tabeeti lubeta lwalutuko ambabo kuti baze ku Mwami.
Angels have greater strength and power, but they do not bring insulting judgments against them to the Lord.
12 Pesi aba bantu, balimbuli banyama batayeeyi, bakalengelwa kuzochigwa alunyonyooko. Tabazi anchibatukila. Mulunyonyoko abalabo bayonyonyonwa.
But these unreasoning animals are naturally made for capture and destruction. They do not know what they insult. They will be destroyed.
13 Balabisizigwa achibwedezyo chakubisya kwabo. Bayeya kuti chibabotela isikati nkulikondezya. Ntotubata atumpenda otu. Balakondelelwa mumapobwe abo ngibapobola akati kanu. Nekuba boobo babotelwa michito yabo italuleeme awo nibapobola aandinywe. bumwi bupanduluzi bwamazubano bulaziloobu, “balabotelwa andinywe mumapobwe aluyando.”
They will receive the reward of their wrongdoing. They think that luxury during the day is a pleasure. They are stains and blemishes. They enjoy their deceitful actions while they are feasting with you.
14 Balijisi meso azwide bumambi; tabakwe nibakkutikana azibi. Balayunga myuuya itakkalinkene mukuchita zibi, alubo balamyoyo yakayumisigwa mukutangala. Mbana balutuko!
They have eyes full of adultery, they are never satisfied with sin. They entice unstable souls into wrongdoing, and they have their hearts trained in covetousness. They are cursed children!
15 Bakasiya inzila iluleme bakasweka, bakatobela inzila ya Bbalamu mwana wa Bbiyoli, oyo wakali kuyandisya kuliyiigwa kuzintu zitaluleme. Bwiingi bupanduluzi bwamazubano bupandulula obu, Bbalamu mwana wa Bbiyoli mukuyanda kuti kwendelane azili muchizuminano chachindi mukulembwa kwelyo izina. Amwi malembe amazubano basala kulilemba kuti amalembelo achi Giliki, ayo abalika oobo, Bbalamu, mwana wa Bbiyoli.
They have abandoned the right way and have wandered off to follow the way of Balaam son of Beor, who loved to receive payment for unrighteousness.
16 Pesi wakalijanina lutuko nkambo kakubisya kwakwe - nkambo imbongolo itakwe mputo yakambuula ejwi lyabuntu yayimikizya bufubafuba bwamusinsiimi.
But he obtained a rebuke for his own transgression—a mute donkey speaking in a human voice stopped the prophet's insanity.
17 Aba balumi balimbuli zilambwa zitakwe meenda. Bali mbuli mayooba ayobupepuka aguuwo. Balindililwa amudima usiya ngubabambilidwe. (questioned)
These men are springs without water and mists driven by a storm. The gloom of thick darkness is reserved for them.
18 Balaambula amajwi akulisumpula atawope. Balayunga bantu mukwinda kuli ezyo zibotezya nyama. Alubo balayunga bantu abo banga balokwezya kuyanda kuloboka buponi bwamukutaziba.
They speak with vain arrogance. They entice people through the lusts of the flesh. They entice people who try to escape from those who live in error.
19 Balabasyomezya lwangunuko, pesi bo lwabo mbazike babusyachivulemwangu. Nkambo muntu muzike wazeezyo kufumbwa zimuzunda.
They promise freedom to them, but they themselves are slaves of corruption. For a man is a slave to whatever overcomes him.
20 Na kakuli kuti bavunwa kubusofwazi bwaansi mukwinda mukuziba Mwami a Mufutuli Jesu Kkilisito mpawo kabiyo bachigwa lubo mulimbabo akuzundwa, chimo chabo chinoli chayindilila kwinda chakutanguna.
If they have escaped the corruption of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and are again entangled in them and overcome, the last state has become worse for them than the first.
21 Nichali kubota kuti kabayandokkede kabatabwizi pe bululami kwinda kuti wabuziba mpawo wazobusiya wazwa mumulawo Uusalala wakali wasisigwa kulimbabo.
It would have been better for them not to know the way of righteousness than to know it and turn away from the holy commandment delivered to them.
22 Aka kambyo nkamasimpe kulimbabo; “Imubwa ubweda kumaluusi akwe, alubo ingulube yazwa kusanzigwa ilabwedulula kumatope.”
This proverb is true for them: “A dog returns to its own vomit, and a washed pig returns to the mud.”
